Chapter 2493
Tilda hesitated.
“I just don’t want to create unnecessary complications.
”
A soft chuckle escaped Keanu’s lips.
“Complications? Like idle gossip? Tilda, you’ve always marched to the beat of your own drum, haven’t you? Or is this about Lyndon?”
His words struck a nerve.
Tilda’s eyelids fluttered, and her grip on her phone tightened.
It was true — Lyndon’s perspective mattered.
She didn’t want to upset him.
“Lyndon doesn’t love you, does he?” Keanu continued, recalling what he’d overheard earlier.
“Why let his feelings dictate yours?”
Tilda’s heart clenched, a sharp pang shooting through her.
Her fingers curled into fists.
Raising her eyes, she spoke with quiet determination.
“Keanu, I’m married.
Whether he loves me or not, I have a duty to uphold.
I’ll conduct myself as Mrs.
Fernandez should, without causing any scandal.
I appreciate the rescue at the cliff, but that doesn’t mean I will reignite old flames with you.
If you consider me a friend, please manage your feelings accordingly.
”
After a brief pause, she added, not wanting to leave the issue unresolved, “Show me the code.
Let’s settle this.
”
The woman before him — composed, resolute, and indifferent- remained the same Tilda who haunted his dreams.
Keanu couldn’t help but offer a wry smile.
Sometimes, he truly resented her unwavering logic.
Why couldn’t she embrace a little emotion?
Weren’t literature students supposed to be sentimental creatures?
Seeing his hesitation, Tilda reached out and took his _ phone, inquiring, “Would you please tell me your password?”
“910506,” Keanu replied, his voice barely a whisper.
Keanu recited a sequence of numbers.
Tilda paused, her grip tightening on the phone.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
It was her birthday.
He had set his phone’s password to her birthday.
Tilda quelled her thoughts, unlocked the phone, and settled the bill.
“Keanu, thank you once more.
If you’re occupied…”
“I’m free.
I’ll depart once Mr.
Fernandez arrives.
You go on and eat,”
Keanu remarked as he took his phone from her.
